[center][h2][color=chocolate]Connor Bayer[/color][/h2]Interacting:[@LetMeDoStuff][/center][hr] Connor sat in the mess hall, his attitude completely opposite of everyone else. Sure the soup wasn't the best, but he'd definitely had worse. Besides, after running as much as he had in the last couple hours, he would eat dirt if he had to. That, added to his fear of Lauren force feeding them all made him okay with eating whatever was truly in his soup. He downed another full bowl, just to ease his hunger, and then washed it down with water. He laid his spoon on the rim of his bowl and stared down at the wooden bowl, deciding if he wanted to get more or not. He decided to not eat anymore and rather pushed his bowl away from him. [color=chocolate]"Oh, yeah, just-"[/color] He let out a light belch. [color=chocolate]"Just for the record, I didn't barge into the girl's cabin, I was dying and was dragged there."[/color] He said, partly to Sano and partly to the girls at the table. As the conversations continued on, the young man noticed Grant standing in the doorway, and something about him seemed off. To be fair, Connor didn't know him hardly at all, but he could tell that the boy's mind was somewhere else. He quietly dismissed himself from the group and made his way over to where Grant had stood himself for the moment. He leaned back against the wall and looked over at the cadet. [color=Chocolate]"You alright, man?[/color] [color=chocolate]"Name's Connor, by the way. Grant, right?"[/color] He shifted to make himself more comfortable. [color=chocolate]"You wanna... join the table? You're welcome to sit with everyone else, we'd love to have you."[/color] When the conversation dropped to Sano's remarks to Lauren, Connor watched careful as the young man stormed out in frustration. Connor pushed off the wall and followed after Sano. When he reached the cabins, he found the cadet inside. [color=chocolate]"Hey, Sano.[/color] He said as he sat in the bed across from him. [color=chocolate]"My- uh... My family was killed in the titan attacks. If your experience was anything like mine, then I'm really sorry. A lot of us lost people to the titans a few years ago, so I don't think they meant any harm. I appreciate how hard you're working, and following orders - I really admire it."[/color] He let silence fall over the cabin again, allowing Sano to decide whether or not he would respond.
